CVE-2026-67174: DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via Unsafe String and SVG Icon Rendering in Pivotick

Pivotick contains a DOM-based cross-site scripting vulnerability in its generic UI element resolution and icon-rendering utilities. The tryResolveHTMLElement function treated any resolved string as HTML markup by assigning it to a <template> element through innerHTML. Strings derived from untrusted graph properties or custom rendering callbacks could therefore introduce arbitrary HTML or SVG elements into the live document. The vulnerable function was used by multiple UI components, including headers, property panels, extra panels, and tooltips. Additionally, createIcon inserted caller-supplied svgIcon markup into a template without sanitization. An application integrating Pivotick and deriving icon markup from untrusted data could therefore expose a second script-execution path. An unauthenticated attacker able to provide a crafted graph, property value, rendering result, or SVG icon could execute JavaScript in another user's browser when the affected content is displayed or interacted with. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to access information available to the victim, manipulate graph data or application state, and perform actions with the victim's privileges. The patch changes string rendering to use textContent, requiring callers to explicitly return an Element when HTML rendering is intended. It also sanitizes SVG icon markup before inserting it into the DOM.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

A flaw in Pivotick can let attacker-controlled graph content or icons run JavaScript in a viewer’s browser. A successful attack could expose information, alter application state, or perform actions using the victim’s privileges. Applications are at risk only where they integrate vulnerable Pivotick code and allow untrusted content into the affected rendering paths.

Executive priority

Treat internet-facing or multi-user integrations as an immediate remediation priority because successful exploitation crosses into a victim’s browser session. Determine exposure now, restrict untrusted content where necessary, and deploy the patched behavior promptly. Do not claim compromise without separate evidence.

Technical view

Pivotick passed resolved strings and caller-supplied SVG markup through template.innerHTML without adequate sanitization. Affected paths include headers, property panels, extra panels, tooltips, and icon rendering. The referenced patch renders ordinary strings with textContent and sanitizes SVG markup, while requiring an Element for intentional HTML rendering.

Likely exposure

Prioritize web applications that use Pivotick and display graphs, property values, custom renderer output, or SVG icons influenced by untrusted users. Precise exposure cannot be determined from the supplied version metadata, which lists version “0” with a default unaffected status and identifies no fixed release.

Exploitation context

The source describes an unauthenticated, network-reachable DOM XSS condition with low complexity and no required privileges or user interaction in its CVSS vector. CISA KEV status is false, and the supplied sources provide no evidence of active exploitation or a public exploit.

Researcher notes

CWE-79 applies. The primary sink was template.innerHTML in generic element resolution; a separate icon path accepted SVG markup. The patch’s behavioral change may affect integrations intentionally returning HTML strings, which must instead return Element objects. Exact vulnerable and fixed release versions remain unclear from the supplied records.

Mitigation direction

  • Apply the referenced security commit, or a vendor release confirmed to include it.
  • Ensure ordinary strings use textContent rather than innerHTML.
  • Sanitize SVG icon markup before DOM insertion.
  • Restrict untrusted graph, property, callback, and icon content until remediation is verified.
  • Check Pivotick vendor guidance for an officially fixed release and upgrade instructions.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory applications bundling Pivotick and record their installed package or commit versions.
  • Trace whether untrusted data reaches graph properties, custom renderers, tooltips, panels, headers, or icons.
  • Confirm resolved strings render as text in an approved test environment.
  • Confirm SVG markup is sanitized before insertion into the live DOM.
  • Verify deployed code contains the referenced patch or a vendor-confirmed equivalent.
